Saturday's Critters #168

Saturday's Critters #168

Happy Saturday, it's time to share your critters and post. Any kind of critter will do, even a new or old post.. I appreciate everyone who is linking in with this week's critter party.If you have not guessed already from my other post, the Circle B Reserve in Lakeland is one of my favorite birding places in Florida. Sometimes we visit the Circle B twice in a week. Here are some more of my favorite scenes, birds and a butterfly from the reserve.Two Wood Storks.

A Zebra Longwing Butterfly

Two baby gators.

A Roseate Spoonbill

A Pied-billed Grebe

Green Heron

Sandhill Cranes

As always thanks for the visits and the nice comments. I also thank everyone who is linking up and sharing their critters.. Happy Saturday, have a great weekend!

To see more beautiful birds and cute critters, check out these two memes below.

That is an especially nice shot of the Greenie! My envy of your Wood Storks has lessened a bit-- I had complained about their absence locally in south Florida but suddenly a colony of about 25 pairs has cropped up in Weston, only about 12 miles north of our home! Now I will keep wishing for some cranes.

It does look like a wonderful place to see birds and nature from several of your shares on here and Facebook. I love going to the one in Delray Beach, though I am not good with the spelling. The birds are just outstanding, their numbers are incredible. Have a Happy weekend~

I can see why you visit Circle B twice a week Eileen. It looks a lovely quiet place and seems to hold lots of birds. Love those baby gators - no hands though! Tahnks for letting me join in today. Have a super weekend.

Great shots Eileen, as always. It's been a long while since I've linked up... maybe I'll get on my own blog later and post a nice shot of a chickadee I captured this week. That is, if I can steal a few minutes from my kids on the main computer where I keep my photos and software.

Good morning Eileen! I'm early for me this week, it pays to mention to the boss that I've worked too many weekend in a row! I have this weekend off! Yay. I enjoyed all your critters, but especially I spy with my little eye, some very cute eyes just above the water! Very neat capture!

We have seen 3 different species of butterflies in the backyard and the past two days which may spring is really here or more likely summer is really here. I love all the photos but I always do I don't think you can take a bad photo

Happy Saturday, Eileen. I think the Roseate Spoonbill is one the prettiest birds you have photographed since I've been reading your blog. They are so pastel, and really dress up their environment! The wood storks are so stately, they resemble the tree stump that they're standing by. Great shots of all birds, and young gators too! Happy weekend to you.

Hi Eileen, You are lucky to have Spoonbills in your locale. They are gorgeous! I love that shot of the Green Heron. It looks like a spot I would enjoy visiting. Lots of variety of birds and wildlife. Have a great Sunday!

Hi Eileen, I enjoyed all your pictures in yet another fine Saturday's Critters. I especially like the Sandhill Cranes. We used to spend some summer time in Montana and I will always remember the sound of the Sandhill Cranes calling in the early morning. Their call is so distinctive! Thanks for sharing and hosting! Wishing you a happy weekend and a good week ahead!

Dearest Eileen; Oh, "Circle B Reserve in Lakeland" seems to be the perfect place to birding (like you said)☆☆☆A Zebra Longwing Butterfly is REALLY attractive; must be enjoying spring weather♪ I always LOVE to see the Green Heron which is the Heron I cannot see here(♡^.^♡) Wonderful photograph!

Thank you so much for your sweet comments♡♡♡ I'm away from pc for a while; Have a wonderful weekend and new week, Dear friend.Sending Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan to my Dear friend, xoxo Miyako*

Heisann.... thanks for your comment! Great shots! I hope we soon have scenes like yours here. Still snowing... In some minutes I will walk with a colleague of mine with our dogs in winterwonderland...Have a nice Sunday ;:OD)

Your pictures make me feel warm..summer like...I wish!! It's bitter cold today but it is to warm up next week..not too fast, I hope..The green Heron is lovely..Hard to pick a favorite shot..Happy Sunday..

The animals in your post are really great to see again.The roseate spoonbill is still a surprise. In the Netherlands we have only white spoonbills :-) The green heron is so beautiful. I wish we had it here too.Greetings, Helma
